mere care fa 1 attention tbsn was given te
tbe project for transferring the weather
bureau te the agricultural department As
the work Is In no sense military that would
bave been the proper basis for the Inaugu
ration of tbe much needed reform, but the
wlde distribution of military pests through
remote parts, wbcre weather observations
are et value,the high average of lntelllgenee
of the efllcers aud the well founded im
pression that tbey usually need something
te de operated te keep the weather nndsr
military surveillance. II only takes about
000 men, but Is ene"et the straws
tbst weaken tbe skeleton army, it we
eontlnuete maintain our email apology for
an army ws should at leaal make It perfeet
In Its way, and tbe study of winds and
temperature la hardly a military way. We
turn out cClecrs from ths West Point
school claimed te be the best military
oellego In the world, and then we send
them te superintend polleo dnty ever the
Indians or te mtseacre ttme In some
garrison; end of the small handful of men
under him oaeti clllear finds a Urge pre
portion taken for work net military. We
should have a little tnodet army com posed
et tbe keenest of rlllamen, the mest expert
artillerists and thorough cavalrymen, but
Instead we bave a force largely composed of
uniformed laborers, and by bad manage
ment and falae economy have neither an
army,nor a single fort of value, nor a signal
service. This and ether non-military work
should be especially provided for, se that
men need net be taken out of the army ter
It, tbeua-h there Is te reason why weather
observations should net still be required
from military peatf. Tbe army aheuld be
kept In constant activity, aa foreign armies

As Congress ha decided te leave the signal
